This week we have the very talented Anita Thorsen as our guest designer at Sukkersött! She has challenged us to make our own pattern paper! We are not allowed to use any fabric paper at all. This is how my card turned out, after struggling and throwing away quite a lot of paper - and time ;)

I wanted to use this SU stamp to make a background, and because it's so small (3,5 x 4 cm) I had to stamp several and then put them together. I used some time trying out different kinds of ink and papers...... and ended up stamping with VersaCraft 'Pale Aqua' on acetate. It's nearly impossible to get a "perfect" stamp with this combination, but I found the effect nice though - looks like a lace or a frosted window or something like that :) I used an embosser heater to make the ink fasten to the acetate sheet, so then I also sprinkled some silver embossing powder on, quite randomly, before heating. Then the stamp turned out like this.

I didn't want to hide the squares behind a lot of decoration, so I only used some lace, Prima paper roses and a piece from a Prima chrystal swirl.

This hÄnglar girl (from the autumn kit) isn't quite as pale as on this picture, but she is painted with Distress Ink 'faded jeans' with different amounts of water. The stool is a mix of 'walnut stain' and 'black soot' - in that order.

You have to be one of the most creative people I know, this paper is just GORGEOUS! Hanne, such a stunning piece. I want to make my own designer paper now! :) Love the image, super sweet! Great details too. Just a perfectly made card! Have a great weekend! :)
